KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>733422153>can’t trade onlinewhy is this $20actually if game freak was a good company they would’ve just merged the two versions to give players a reason to buy this shit instead of emulating.
>>733422132Fake and gay, they aren't going to let the youth see how good pokémon games used to be, they might start demanding better
>>733422281>how good pokémon games used to beFRLG suck ass
>>733422247The developers of those games wanted you to meet up locally to trade, that was the whole point of the 2 versions, force you to interact with others
it's real lol
>>733422281Its real. I just checked. Its in the coming soon tab on the eshop$20 is pretty insulting
>>733422356And that made sense in the fucking 90s you spaz
is this home compatible
>>733422132Are we going to be able to battle and trade again?
>>733422132>$20holy greedtendo
>>733422479They said Home will be updated to accommodate it, yes.
>>733422479Yes, though it won't be at launch, as usual.
>just got an analogue pocketI'm good but you guys enjoy
>>733422281Yer wrong, bitch.
>newfag version>not the chadfag GB versioneasy skip
>>733422356It’s 2026 and everyone’s already done that. These are the most emulated games in history, and perhaps most rom-hacked games in history as well, so they have no reason to be faithful when they’re charging $20. Just make the FRLG’s blue version with every exclusive and events activated. They’re selling this on a console that already has a Gen 1 remake on it.
>>733422132>pay 20 for a game even your shitty nokia can emulateWHO IS THIS FOOOOOOOR
I just preordered both versions. Support for home is huge
>>733422615coonsumers and retarded pokecattle.
>>733422615>>733422628
>>733422558>and perhaps most rom-hacked games in history as well,pfahahahahaakakahahahaAbsolutely not. Popular as Pokemon may be, they can't hold a candle to how much Super Mario World and Sonic the Hedgehog have been hacked.
>20$lol
do you guys think there will be physical versions?
>>733422615Either the biggest normies to ever live who can't emulate or the biggest pokeshills to ever live
>>733422356no one has friends anymore it's not 2002
>>733422683The description says digital exclusive
>>733422649>>733422628i mean, im a huge pokemon fan, but, i really just play the games and move on. compfags are really the ones hurting the franchise at this point or something. lole.
>24 year old game>there exists a service in which people pay $50 a year to access old ROMs>instead of uploading your old ROM to the service people pay $50 a year for, charge $20 for itwhat fucking greedy niggers
>>733422153>This digital exclusive contains the Sevii islandsCorrect me if I'm mistaken, but weren't the Sevii islands freely accessible in the original version of FR/LG? Aside from the promo islands, of course
>>733422281Gen 3 killed pokemania.
>>733422427>$20 is pretty insultingYeah it should be $40 just like the original
>>733422132>Here's some old ROMs of games you've played 40 times already, that will be $20Why does anyone excited for this
>>733422747>but weren't the Sevii islands freely accessible in the original version of FR/LG?You are correct anon maybe is the event shit? who knows
>>733422663If we’re including every randomized seed then FRLG wins out. Yes that counts, and more people have actually downloaded Pokemon rom hacks than Sonic or a Mario ones.
>>733422464>>733422692Not their problem. Interact or don’t.
>>733422356It's 2026. Not 1996.Get with the times.
>>733422770they made it cheaper because>they know it's an old game>they know they are competing with emulators
>>733422780No that doesn't count you stupid faggot
>>733422770>>733422804R/B/Y were $10 on 3DS
what's the point?
>>733422836pokemon is le special
>>733422790seeing as I have a pc like a proper person and I don't care nintenbro I won't.
>>733422836>gradient 4:3 background and player icon permanently on screen at all timemiss me with this faggot shit
>>733422823Why doesn’t it count? Because your stupid backwood nigger logic says it doesn’t? Or are you a stupid Indian? Whatever, your life sucks and mine doesn’t.
>>733422836they probably couldn't do the wireless connectivity and pokemon home integration without making the game a separate appbut also money
>>733422771You should know by now that there’s nothing that Nintendo fans won’t spend money on. They were fucking buying Virtual Boy accessories last week.
>>733422906>50 cents per megabyteWhat a steal!
>>733422906>40mbThe GBA ROM was only 4mb, wasn't it?
>>733422906>40MBAren't these games like 10MB? Where's the extra 30MB going?
>>733422132Thats ironic, i will be releasing a new version of PureRGB on the same date!>>733422558>makenot an option for them, please understand
>>733422867We already got the best GBA Pokemon though
>>733422801Last I checked you can still trade with people IRL. Not their job to coddle your autism
>>733422836Why give it for free when you could sell it and easily make millions?Also, they probably didn't want players to use the rewind & save states function since the game is compatible with Home but also trading.
>>733422734At the very least do both.
>>733422968>>733422985emulator, graphics like the home screen icon/borders/UI
>>733422985the bitcoin miner
>>733422968>>733422985maybe uncompressed audio? that would be nice
>>733422836Pokemon Company probably figured they had this kind of leverage and that pokemon was popular enough to warrant it. People that want it won't really think about $20 for Pokemon, especially with all the anniversary stuff being shored up.It's like asking why didn't whoever the fuck owns Scurge The Hive why they didn't just slap it on GBA Classics, or why didn't Capcom just throw all the Mega Man games on there vs charge for their own collection.
>>733423161Oh come on, the emulator couldn't be THAT big>checks mgba.exe>39.7MBoh.
>>733423080>Last I checked you can still trade with people IRL. Not their job to coddle your autismBased nintendo forcing people to meet in person rather than over a screen
>>733422132>$20Good thing I already have them downloaded on my computer
But what about the cart prices?
>>733423248They do have that kind of leverage.It's called Pokemon HOME and the ability to transfer Pokemon to other games through it.Can't do that with Nintendo Classics.
>>733423270>Gulps Nintendo cock relentlesslyTendies will do ANYTHING>>>/vp/
>>733422132>not even a frlg remake
>>733422132>$20What's sad is how many people are going to buy it.
>>733423248Pokemon Mystery Dungeon is on GBA ClassicsThough if this game does have some extra functionality with pokemon home it makes sense, but it still comes off as senseless penny pinching
>>733423396WE MUST BUY ITSO WE GET RSE!!!!
>>733422132>not apart of the NSO GBA games list>$20 bucks for a ROM of just ONE of the gamesholy shit i can't wait for this to get officially announced and see all the cocksucking tendies come up with a way to defend thisThere are so many retro game collections these days that come with multiple games and most know how to price their shit correctly. The fucking Bomberman collection that came out recently has 7 games (with the option to change region versions) and that costs $20 as well. I mean fuck paying for ROMs but that's still better than this. I legitimately can't figure out why consumers are so god damn willing to let this company keep doing this.>20 FUCKING DOLLARS FOR A SINGLE GBA ROM
>>733422479Won't matter now that home isn't a stable version overall, you'll either be locked to sword and shield/SV or Legends LA, no going backwards no fancy move sets to keep.
>>73342339620$ is fucking nothing man, try getting a physical copy of FRLG nowadays.>b-but piracynobody cares.
>fags complain 24/7 about how companies should make old games available >they listen and release them in their original state>NOOOO NOT LIKE THAT
>>733422132HAHAHAHAHA, Did you see that fucking Nintendo haters scum? Did you see? They're only going to charge us $20 for the ROM, not $30 like you've been saying all week. Fuck you, prophets of hate, fuck you. Thank you, Godtendo. Thank you Godfreak
>>733423298I feel like this is just recycling the "muh DEXIT" debate the vast majority of people that bought Sword/Shield and will buy Pokemon FRLG's anniversary re-release literally do not give a shit about what pokemon are or aren't available they just want to play pokemon.
fuck and i recently sold all my pokemon switch games because fuck pokemon now. but they got me by the balls with this one. and i know i can emulate i even got a retroid pocket, but fuck actually paying for it and having it on my switch 2 is a real good incentive to actually complete the dex and stuff yknow? im preordering rn sorry bros..
>l-let us buy teh geams>"okay, here you go">REEEEEE TO MUCH MONEY, FUCKING JEWS"okay poors
>>733422132I thought they gave the old-ass games out if you signed up for the online subscription thingyHow come they're double dipping for this particular old-ass game? Have they done this before for other old games?
>>733422938how much did the wiiu and GC sell again? the n64?
>>733423701Was it really so difficult to read >>733422153 ?It's because of HOME support to transfer Pokemon to newer games.
>>733423757what has that got to do with literally anything
>>733423701TPCI is notorious for being even worse than Nintendo. They advertised DLC for a game that wasn't even out.
>>733422132the fact that this just dropped out of nowhere bodes extremely poorly for the chances of a directthis is exactly the kind of thing they'd have as a segment in a direct
>>733423785the nso games aren't home compatible. it's not that hard to understand. this is mostly for collectors and compfags.
>>733423837how are you guys still surprised Nintendo is just coasting off former glory?
>>733422628>Support for home is hugeis it reallyit'll likely be one-way because pokemon immutable data has changed since gen 3 so any mons you send to home will be stuck thereand it's not like frlg have exclusives you can't get nowadays
>>733422132Imagine if Gen 10 isn't releasing this year and THIS was their big announcement.
>>733423837It could be a mistake. Someone might be getting fired.
I really didn't want them to remake G1 again but we still don't have a Kanto game with abilities AND the damage split.
>>733423701Because pokemon faggots are just like Disney adults. They will bend over and do anything for Nintendo as long as the pokemon brand is involved
>>733423837It's probably more someone accidentally flipped a switch too early since their release date is Pokemon Day. It makes sense that they were more likely going to be shadowdropped for the big anniversary event next week.This isn't even the first time Nintendo's done this shit.
>>733423837Yeah the general Direct is rip.We'll get a Pokemon Direct on Pokemon day next week
>>733422628Faggot i hope you choke on a joycon
>>733422747Yes, the Sevii Islands are in all versions of FRLG. They're not exclusive content. You need to complete the postgame story there with Team Rocket to be able to trade with RSE.The exclusive content is Navel Rock and Birth Island, to catch Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Deoxys. You need activated events for that.
If you buy this, you are undeserving of basic human rights
>>733423862why not have it on NSO and have a non-NSO version if you want Home compatibility or for people who don't have the subscription? You're supposed to get old games on NSO, it's pure greed to say "actually for this one you have to pay $20"
>no HOME at launch>no online trading / battling>no link with the gamecube games>no mention of the events being unlockedBRAAAAAAP happy 30th anniversary!
the only way that it'd be worth it is if there was online, and you could get johtomons like crobat or blissey before the postgame. neither of these things will happen because it's modern Game Freak.
>>733423605>>733423697And it'll be gone the moment the servers for the Switch's eshop go down. Just like with the 3DS, Wii, and Wii U. Meanwhile I can download a rom of Fire Red or Leaf Green and keep it on my computer for decades. What's your point
>>733423976just emulate it if you want to play it that bad. who gives a fuck. even your grandma's computer can run that shit.
>>733422836- Pokemon Home integration- Connecting for trading/battles- Stops the use of save states or duplicating saves which Pokemon Company is extraordinarily strict about to prevent cheating in competitive Pokemon.
>>733422628both versions? There's like ten different versions.>>733422408
>>733422132>$20 (Wii U GBA VC was $8 a pop)>No online trading/battling>Can't even bundle all the languages together and put a disclaimer that each language has a separate save file>They couldn't even get Home working at launch for a fucking GBA game>Probably won't get online events available>More than likely won't have emulator features like speed ups and save states>If the screenshots are anything to go by it doesn't even have borders>More than likely won't support Cloud Saves because lol our VGC is full of genned pokemon so lets punish literally everyone :)>All of this because GameFreak is too Jewish to put them on NSO
>>733423837probably went up early accidentally and we'll see it "revealed" in pokemon presents
>English OnlyYou know what? This is bullshit. I know these are just lazy rom ports but the ease of switching back and forth between different languages is a huge thing for me. It's not 1997 anymore. Give me options.
>>733422132I CANNOT EMULATE BASED ON PRINCIPLEIMUSTBUY
>>733422132>20 bucks for decades old gba roms>doesn't even have any new features like online playNintendo really got cocky after the switch's success huh.
>>733424041I don't wanna play shit you retarded loser, learn to read
>>733424014You can still redownload purchased Wii, 3DS and Wii U games you jackoff.
>>733422615people who want to play on their switch?
>>733422771>Why does anyone excited for thisGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODMORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRINGSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR
>>733424075then why are you fucking whining. fuck off. i already told you why they released it like this.
>>733423976>You're supposed to get old games on NSOOkay say that to all the other old games that aren't on NSO.
>>733422558>FRLG's blueWouldn't it be weird if they released such a romhack for the 30th instead? Well I guess they would make new digital boxart at least.
The originals are like $150 now so shut up and buy it
>>733423995>no HOME at launchmate why does home matter at all for this. i am legit scratching my head>no online trading / battlingtrue, but it never supported this in the first place. how would you facilitate that? frlg doesn't have a gts>no link with the gamecube games>no mention of the events being unlockedboth true, no gcn support sucks and no evidence of navel rock/birth island being unlocked blow
>>733423248>>733423701Pokemon isn't on NSO because of the implications of trading combined with in-built save states. Duplicated Pokemon are not a problem in of themselves, but they worry that easy duplication fosters nihilistic detachment from the series core appeal by clearly demonstrating to children that Pokemon are fake, interchangeable abstractions of data.
smarr indie companyvideo game emulation is big effortprease understand
>>733424004Funny how putting an online mode is pretty much the norm in new retro game compilations (such as the Yu-Gi-Oh Collection or Street Fighter 30th Anniversary), but here all they're going to do is replace the link cable with wireless local connection.
what's the point of preordering a digital game? especially one that's 40mb, if it was a 90gb game I'd get it, you can preinstall it and whatnot
>>733424060You will use the universal language and LOVE it
I grew up with Nintendo games and love them. But fuck me if their cult-like fanbase doesn't make me feel ashamed to actually like things this company makes
>>733422628>Support for home is hugeHow? They removed most of the traits that made old-gen Pokemon unique in Gen 9
>>733424162>how would you facilitate that?the same way NSO GBA classics does, let's you play with a friend online emulating the link cable functionality
>>733422132Pokefaggots are the battered housewives of the gaming industry, these faggots are really going to buy $20 GBA games
Fuck Nintendo charging 20 dollars for a 20 year old GBA rom, tell me what your favorite FireRed/LeafGreen romhack is RIGHT NOW.
>Games were originally 40$ each>they are now priced above 100$ with the chances of a fake copy>The digital release is 20$>this is bad because some nigger that never cared and was going to pirate anyway is crying about it
>>733424205coldest take of the week.
>>733424239I can't hear you with Nintendo's cock in your mouth.
>>733422771>nintendo does anythingTendies will pay for it. They're our generations apple fanatics.
>>733424191why does filesize matter
>>733424060There are also versions for other languages, but they are all sold separately instead of in a single edition. Because, you know, modifying the ROMs to let you choose is a lot of work and stuff
>>733424238Mega Moemon Firered
>>733422132Nintendo fans when they put a rom out to pay for it instead of putting it out on their emulators already.
>>733424162It matters cause you can transfer what you catch up to newer games, or get the opposite versions exclusives if it also lets you deposit pokemon in. And as for online I dont mean GTS just general trading and battling, like how other NSO switch games have multiplayer
>>733424238>Fuck GameFreak charging 20 dollars for a 20 year old GBA rom, tell me what your favorite FireRed/LeafGreen romhack is RIGHT NOW.fixed that for you
>>733424239You've been exploited by nintendo for so long that you don't even realize that it's normal for games to become cheaper with time.Please stick your head out of your comfort zone every once in a while.
Already got both games free on my Steam Deck
>>733424223This. I don't get why people are clamoring over Home support, as if it means anything. All the Pokemon available in FRLG are available on other Home-enabled games already, and movesets get wiped when Pokemon are moved to Home. What do you expect Home support to actually do?
>>733424267>>733424270>>733424301>>733424323>NINTENDO NINTENDO NINTENDO KILLED MY PARENTSAs if your rampant seething samefagging ass wasnt obvious enough, its Gamefreak's fault retard.
reminder Nintendo just charged 5 dollars to slap a shitty ai upscale on xenoblade x
>>733424301You know you were paying for a rom when they originally released back in the day, right?
>>733422938considering that a actual virtual boy + games costs thousands I dont care.
>>733422132>$20 each>for gba slopthey sure know they have to exploit their audience as much as they can before they run out of iti'm glad pokefags and nintards are least likely to breed
>>733424323>it's normal for games to become cheaper with timebut why? why should the passage of time depreciate a game's value? the code hasn't changed since 2004, it's still the same game.
>>733424343why are you assuming everyone who makes comments you don't like is the same personthat's schizo tier
>>733424349I fucking despise the Switch 2
>>733424323>You've been exploited by nintendo for so long that you don't even realize that it's normal for games to become cheaper with time.>40$ before>20$ nowthe game did, in fact, get cheaper
Day one!
>>733424360you do know that nintendo has a paid online service that already has game boy emulator on it in which they could have already put it on instead of jewing you out of another 20 shekels.
>$20 GBA games, each version separate AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>733424349jesus christ the upscale looks fucking TERRIBLEgod I hate this new AI upscaling everything trend so much
>retards cry up and down that NSO sucks and they want to buy their roms>gamefreak does it>they still complain
>>733424374Schizos tend to make the same mistake 4 times, which you did. You are way too obvious.
>>733424129>13 games for $40 (currently on sale for $16 on Steam)>comes with button remapping option>comes with online option>option to change region version>contains bonus material like concept art and sketchesInsane how little Nintendo has to do to eclipse this collection in sales
>>733422615nu nintendo kikeslave goycattle who will buy both versions to make their childhood friend nintendo happy
i hate how you cant criticize anything nintendo makes cuz then grifters come out of their caves to give the same takes they've been spewing for months. fuck off already. these posts give nothing of value.
>>733422615Pokefags who will buy anything and I mean ANYTHING
>>733424362>i'm glad pokefags and nintards are least likely to breedUnless you have kids of your own then stfu you hypocrite
>>733422615For the people who have been asking for it? retard?

It's hilarious how "people" still defend Pokemon
>>733424403What's that got to do with anything? You're still paying for ROMs, just like you did back in the day when the games originally released.
>>733424421>Insane how little GameFreak has to do to eclipse this collection in salesftfy
>>733422771>a port is a rom
>>733424453Grifting what? I gain nothing by (correctly) pointing out that Nintendo is a greedy, shit company peddling substandard products. Nor do I gain anything for calling their patrons retarded cultists. I do it for fun.
JAPAN JUST CONSOOOOOOOOM
Guys instead of paying $20 for a game from 2004, you could get Silksong
>>733424349Looks far better
>>733424239the rom is free so doesn't affect me
>>733424581who says it's a port? it's far more likely to be the exact same emulator that NSO uses but with savestates disabled because TPC doesn't like that.and don't say that's not possible because animal crossing just released an update that does just that.
>>733424614I will never take Japs opinions seriously when they mindlessly consoom Poke shit like this
>>733424372Its because as games age, less people are looking for them as they also age. So demand drops while supply stays high, causing a price drop.
>>733424658But I already own Silksong.I also already own FRLG too, for the matter.
>>733424614WATERBLUE CONFIRMED
>>733424658But I already have Silksong, I cant buy a game twice you know
>>733424713...do you see a third logo ANYWHERE in that picture? you blind faggot
>>733424349Funny how NDS monkeys went from defending goyframes on the goydeck to attacking the superior DLSS because nintendo is using it to run games at 4k 60fps now.Yes, I will remind you 2160p is 4k.

>$20 for a GBA ROM>$120 for some wooden blocks with Mario printed on them>that absolutely awful partner Direct at the beginning of FebruaryI'm starting to think I'm never going to buy a Switch 2. I'd feel shame for supporting Nintendo at this point.
>>733422247Children born during covid can now play the game
>>733424689They had to update the code to some extent to support both Pokemon Home transfers and local wireless. If it was just a one to one transfer it would be different but still the only way to officially play on a “real” copy that doesn’t cost $150 today.
>>733424609and water is wet.
>>733422836>Why would people want to actually own itPlease die
>>733422153>LAN onlylol
>>733424814FireRed and LeafGreen already supported local wireless.
>>733422767I honestly believe that not upping the ante and having three regions (Hoen, Johto and Kanto) on the cart for RSE was a massive mistake. Pokemon games should have gotten bigger and bigger with each “revision.”Also, insisting on event pokemon was also a problem, especially Luiga and Ho-oh.
>>733424865>ownYou're paying for a license, steamie.
>>733424774Nice hiding that price Game Freak
>>733422132Why the fuck are they $20?! They're gba games!!! You can easily emulate these games on a phone
>>733422132>$19.99
>>733424951>emulateWhat the FUCK ANON are you STEALING GAMES? @FBI PLEASE CATCH THIS MAN
>rerelease FRLGonly time will tell when RSE comes on the switch, follow by the DS titles. holy shit. also leafgreen has slowpoke. it was a middle finger to pokedex completionists.
>>733424568It's sad but true.
When has $20 become too expensive for a videogame? I thought Americans made like 4-10 times my money on average
>People draw the line at actually being able to buy an old game on a Nintendo console instead of just renting it for 50 dollars a yearThe fuck is wrong with tendies?
is everyone forgetting the fact that these rereleases might have e-card features alongside the event tickets?
>>733425019>only time will tell when RSE comes on the switchnext year for RS>follow by the DS titles.probably never
>>733425040You really dont get that the games are 20+ years old and easily avalible on everything thus not being worth $20
>>733424658how's the switch 2 edition of hollow knight, anyway?
>no mention of Switch 2>On top of everything else wrong with this release it's likely going to be 720p stretched to 1080p in handheld
>>733424774It's so tiresome.
>>733425057>might have e-card featureshighly doubt it
>>733425087>easily avalible on everything>check>not available anywhere? explain where I can buy a copy of FRLG right now for cheaper
>>733422132Based Nintendo making people seethe for giving the gamers the proper nostalgia that's actually a good game. I've already preordered two copies for me and for my girlfriend so you brown SEA people can cry more about being too poor to afford games
>>733425057Do we even know if the event Pokemon are on it?
>>733424360>>733424542Back then not everyone could emulate the games nowadays these games along with the rest of the gba library can be played on just about every single device including your fucking PHONE retard
>>733425008Since you can't trade why arent they on NSO?
>>733425106Pokefags are not real
>>733422281Well shit I was wrong, just saw the Nintendo today notification it is real and gay.Bet they introduce new bugs
20 bucks wouldn't be too bad if it had proper online, but they're basically just trying to sell GBA roms for the emulator that's bundled with the online sub which is like, cartoonishly greedy.
>>733425057how would that even work? like the Amiibo?are they gonna release them like they did with the Animal Crossing ones in the form of cards?
>>733425152I wanted to think some posters were bots. But no. It really is a cult at this point.They're all thanking GameFreak and congratulations them for putting this up. It's comical.
>>733425057Nigga they couldn't even bother to get online multiplayer working, what the FUCK makes you think they give a shit about any of that?You will buy your $20 slop, you will consume it, and you will beg for more.
>>733425092it's a 2d indie game from the golden era of westoid indiesit basically runs perfectly aside from the dogshit joycon dpad, which can be fixed by just using another controller
>>733425136Free on google
>>733424793I thought you were kidding about the wooden blocks until I looked it up>>733425057I think they would have included that info.And then I bet they would have slapped on another $10 to the price tag if they included that
>>733425056Why can't it be on NSO and available for purchase separately like everyone has fucking asked for?
>>733425182>>Nigga they couldn't even bother to get online multiplayer workingpretty sure this is a single player jrpg tho
>>733422836Dumping ground for games that can't be sold separately or in compilations (just like how there are no Mega Man Zero titles on it).

>>733425143Choose whichever answer you prefer.1. They got lazy because pokefags will buy anything anyway2. They don't know how to code modern trading into a 25 years old game
>>733425138This board is full of SEA browns nowadays and now they're seething that they have to pay as low as $20 for a good game
It's worth it
>>733422836This lets you rewind and make save states and Gamefreak will file for bankruptcy before they'll ever permit anybody to do that in any official mainline game.
>>733425263the 3DS releases didnt have it either but yeah thats some dogshit they pulled there.

you think pokemon pokopia will have connectivity?
>>733422464>>733422801They came out in 2004. And don't you dare call me an unc, kek.
>>733425371I dont get why you are this upset over someone having the choice to pay for something they want.
>>733425435No too much effort
>>733424774I loved this game as a kid but 20 bucks just for putting the ROM on Switch? Nah fuck off.
>>733425303Those at least had the excuse of coming out very late into the 3DS' lifespan, as well as the fact that you can easily abuse Gen 1 glitches to do nefarious shit to your opponent, like brick their save.
>>733425413is the joycon 2 dpad better than the joycon 1's?
>>733425414How come the west no longer gets cool shit like this?
Free btw
>>733425491?There's no d-pad on the joycons, it's two sets of four buttons.
>>733425504Based open_agb GOD
>>733425479Yeah, I agree with you, its kind of a dick move not to have FRLG online available, especially when not even HOME is available for it atm.
>>733425498the westoid market is just shitskins now, they don't even buy games, what makes you think they are going to buy this sort of thing?
>>733425429This is what every same person would want but for whatever reason no one ever complains about NSO killing the VC
>$20 a pop>for a game that you literally can't complete (events, trades, etc.)>to add insult to injury it's in one language onlyjesus
Congratulations nintendo fans you have defended a copy and paste job of a GBA rom that gives literally 0 incentive to buy it and has less features than owning the original would

Pokemon fans when they discover emulation
>>733422132Does this mean cartridge prices will finally go down?
>>733425504>title screenevery time
The $20 price is absolutely more than it should be, but being realistic there is no acceptable price for this for the people saying that. It's a GBA rom, the most easily emulatable thing in existence. It takes two minutes to get a working version of this on any non-locked down device if you know where to look, for free. As a result it will never be worth any money to some people.That said, the $ value can come from new features and I would say Home compatibility is a valid example of that. Had it also had online battles I'd say $20 is pretty reasonable. With just Home though, that's less convincing.
https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/Nintendo-Switch-download-software/Pokemon-FireRed-Version-3031207.html>Note: Some features may differ from those on the Game Boy Advance version of Pokémon FireRed Version.>no gambling ratingLmfao, Eurofags are getting fucked and still have to pay full price
>>7334256702 weeks, for real this time, totally for sureheard the same with negros and the jeets are getting deported too lol
>>733422132Does it at least give you the event exclusives? I thought it was nice you could get Celebi in the 3DS gen 2 release.
>>733422780>If we’re including every randomized seedThen Super Metroid or one of the zeldas would win
>>733425734lol nothe carts still support gcn connections and pal park in gen 4, plus trading to rse
Ruby and Sapphire were better
>>733425406I don't understand the people saying this. Did you think LGPE exclusively existed to act as a replacement for FRLG? It's a different kind of remake for a different era and with different mechanics.
>>733425753what's the point when home doesn't let you trade back to old games. and the games have event and trade pokemonreleasing shit like that is the equivalent to re-releasing an old ms-dos game without the feelies
>>733424774>trailer trying to hype it up as an old, challenging game>a bunch of children breezed through it, myself included>same goes for the original
>>733424238whatever one that lets me fuck Erika and Sabrina
>>733423225Lol get real
>>733425795Did they actually got rid of the shitskins at the K-marts and lawsons? No fucking way i don't believe you.
>>733425812No mention of it in the trailer or listings so far. So we don't know.I hope so though. My Crystal 3DS playthrough was one of my all time faves and ending it with a successful shiny hunt for GS Ball Celebi was great. Pic related.
>>733425758>gambling ratingit's just a shitty pachislot with odds heavily in your favor. everyone loves the game corneryou're cancer. I hope you catch aids and die
>>733425937How long did that take, by the way? I did a shiny hunt for Lapras in VC Crystal but got burned out trying for Celebi.
>>733425758>Porygon can only be obtained from winning at the Game Corner>no gambling rating prevents EU players from gambling>Eurofucks now need a Pokemon license in order to catch'em allplease God let this happen it would be so fucking funny
>>733425504but can you transfer those mons to za?
>>733424658Or I could save $20 and get neither
>>733425884Old games are le hard!
>>733425318>who even uses those on a casual runMe. I want Alakazam
>>733422132No online trading. Rom does not include all mystery gifts nor Mew. Its 24$ in the EU.Its a fucking scam.
>>733425734People don't actually buy those to play them so no
>>733425937Yeah, that was pretty nice, Im hoping they would have all events for FRLG also
>>733425980You can just purchase coins from the counter instead. What psycho actually grinds the slot machines instead of just buying the requisite coins anyway?
>>733425980You can buy coins at the game corner
>>733425992He actually can with PKSM and Bank
>>7334261103DS bros won
>>733425180Sounds like you're in a cult too. The hater cult.The normal take for well adjusted people would be something like:>That's not for me, but apparently this news makes some people happy. Good for them.
have fun with the safari zone
>>733425753>no online>likely no standard emulation features speeding up, save states, rewinding or cloud saves support>not even any fucking borders or language toggle, just buy the right rom fagetYeah you get jackshit for $20 here.
>>733425740Free, btw
>>733426164What's the point of getting autistic with it if you can't trade, battle, use the box, etc? It's as useless as a rom :/
>>733422153Is there any trade-path to get this to PokemonHome/SV or potentially Gen10?
>>733426067it's much faster to just use the slots, especially if you get a lucky machine with a higher jackpot rate
>>733426191>language toggleI'd fucking kill for languages that let you switch between languages on the fly. one of the most effective language learning aids since you can see what the translators were thinking
>>733424339>and movesets get wiped when Pokemon are moved to HomeWhat the fuck? Really? For what purpose?
>/v/ losing their shit over $20How fucking poor are you losers? I wipe my ass with $20. Maybe ask your parents if they will give you that money for cleaning your room?
>>733425758>Have to play through Voltorb Flip just to get Game Corner exclusive pokemon.>Couldn't even skip it and buy coins outright.That was shit in HGSS and it's shit here
>>733422836To milk out an additional 30 on top of the 20 yearly rent payment from retarded tendies.
>>733426291Pretending it's about money is pathetic, anon
>>733426164safari always was garbage, gen5 removed it because of how shitty entire system was
>>733426291Value proposition discussion is still valid even if it's a low value. What is the value of a product that can be mostly experienced identically for free through unofficial methods? It's a fair discussion. These don't offer much in terms of new features over the originals, which are exceptionally easy to emulate.That said value is also inherently subjective and I know I'm going to get 100s of hours out of this so will be buying both versions because it's worth it to me personally.
>>733426291If you want to pay $20 for a useless version of the game go ahead
>>733426203>it's much faster to just use the slotslol noit's MUCH faster to just purchase 500 coins for 10000P.leafgreen discounts porygon to 6500 coins, so that's just 13 purchases to get the duck
>>733426370>We should get a discount because it's easy to steal this product
>>733426291nu-/v/ is full of third worlders
it's not a remaster like OR/AS, who cares?
>>733422132>this game was made for school children who saw each other every day, but you can play it alone in your room without guilt if you give us $20
Gotta love how /v/ conviniently pretend to be rich and not NEETs when it comes to defending nintendo products
>>733426192enjoy the title screen for free, I guess
>>733426337>"It's not about money">meanwhile the thread is full of "IT'S $20!??" posts
>>733426056how would they implement online trading and multiplayer for this game? I'm a zoomer who's never played FRLG
>>733422132>Games that came out in 2004 on GBA are re-releasing next week>$20 Kek, they could have charged $40 and Nintendo slaves would have bought it because muh pokemon nostalgia. WE'RE GOING BACK TO LE 2004What I don't understand is they could have just dropped this on NSO and let people play it there because it's basically just an emulated version of the game. What exactly is different about this version?
>Nintendo is hiring /pol/ baiters to deflect criticism and derail threads Embarrassing.
>>733426284Nobody knows. If you want to believe conspiracy theories, it's because a Magmar from Gale of Darkness that had the exclusive move Follow Me was instrumental at a VGC finals many years ago, and TPC didn't want uber-rare Pokemon like that to dominate, so Pokemon as of gen 6 required the regional flag to participate, and then all movesets were reset as of Home.Blisy tried to RNG that exact Magmar and determined there was no way it could've been legit, it was clearly genned in, and that probably pissed TPC off too.
>>733426469better visualsI mean trailer alone shows itWhat a retarded question
>>733422132Pokefags WILL buy this.
>>733425758I wonder if they will fix any glitches, like the one where if Entei or Raikoy use roar they disappear forever.Probably not.
>>733426370it'd be worth it if they added some bells and whistles>make the pokedex possible to complete>link cable stuff locally>local battles with joycons>speedup and savestates>don't cut the game corner>auto-repel renewal>etc.but we all know nugame companies hate improving games
>>733425504What happened to your circle pad?
tendies will eat their sloppa and oink happily
>>733426383A game that's perfectly playable from start to finish is "useless"?
>>733425889@suba is this a real card??
>>733426498I didn't watch the trailer because I saw no reason to do so. They should have called it something to differentiate from the original, like Fire Red EX or Leaf Green EX. I just assumed they were charging retards $20 for a GBA game with no upgrades.
>>733426451Wtf is that supposed to mean? That because you dropped $20 on it you will conplete the game?
>>733425884>A>A>A>Opponent is switching, do you want to switch?>A>A>A
>>733426541Yes because you don't have access to all of the content and features and it doesn't add new ones like online trading. There is no reason to get this over downloading a rom
>>733425740>>733426451God this is so accurate.I'd be shocked if more than 10% of people who mass download these old games ever actually play more than five of them in their lives.
>>733426370Let's assume for a moment that unofficial ways to play the game don't exist. Why would the $20 price be outrageous when the original release was $40?
I don't know. A lot of tendies seem upset that they're charging $20 for this instead of putting it on NSO's emulator system for free.
>>733426608That's still not "useless".
>value is also inherently subjective???????????????????????
This shit should be free
>>733426543i have no idea who the artist is, I believe some anon on vp drew it and never disclosed who they were
>>733426629Considering the originals came out in 2004, yes
>>733426387and where do you get the money without lv 50 pokemon faggot>inb4 nugget exploitplay like a man
>>733426469Home compatibility. A separate release means their own emulator with their own modifications which primarily means they can let you transfer stuff to the new games. It's unlikely an NSO release would do this, and it's likely that that's true of the upcoming Pokemon Colosseum release on NSO
>>733426463they would have to make it a 3rd party thing. pokemon games since the DS had an online trading system, but 3rd generation pokemon games, including FRLG, i think you could only trade with a cable to another game boy advance.
>>733426705That's not an answer.
>>733425884Even worse because FRLR are piss easy with overleveled starters because game never got properly update to use gen 3 mechanics.
>hurr modren games suck, I'm not paying for slop>meanwhile "roms have no value, I'm not paying for something I can run on my phone."love it
>>733426675Which one would you download and not actually play if they were free?I think it would be nice to have the leaf green icon on my home screen.Maybe people will think I'm quirky and different for not downloading Fire Red.
>>733426667Are you implying the value of a product, especially an entertainment product, is not subjective?
>>733426709what nugget exploitdo you think 130,000P is hard to gather or something?don't be daft
>>733426662It is to me though and chances are most have played through this game already so they needed good reasons to make people double dip
>>733425884Worked for world of warcraft "classic" and diablo 2I mean, we actually have people who say that difficulty didn't took nosedive with gen4, and call bw a "le hardcore"
>>733425406They specifically said they were meant to be baby versions of mainline so literal toddlers with basic literacy skills could get into the games.
>>733424756no its upscaled 1080p you dumb retarded jeet
>20 dollars for a rom
>>733425198>£113.99Jesus, and I thought that Sony was only being jew with a block toys.
>>733426756I'm not implying it you filthy commie
>>733426801D2 is challenging, specially if you go blind since melee suck dick and game gives zero hints on how skills or equipment work.Retards saying that game is easy play this shit for 20+ years and have bunch of mule accounts.
>>733425406>you put out a completely different remake over five years ago, this is irrevantwhat is this level of autism?
>>733426757there's a team rocket grunt at the end of cerulean bridge that gives you a nugget before battling. if you lose on purpose and return, the dialogue repeats and you get another. do it 26 times for free porygon>hard to gather or somethingit is when you first reach the game corner
>>733424793>the entire comment section is already eating these upYep it's over.Nintendo fans are the most braindead fanbase to ever exist.
>>733426689I love boobies so much
>There are people who are unironically defending paying 20 fucking bucks for unchanged GBA games when they already have a service with several GBA games for cheaper because of "le ownership"Pokémon fans deserve everything bad that happens to them, this is also way more expensive than VC games used to be so it's a terrible excuse regardless
>>733422132Remember that they are only doing this because they will eventually have to shut down the 3ds Pokemon Bank and that will kill the whole meme of "bringing a dude through every Pokemon game ever"
>>733426920>D2 is challengingFuck, it even had mmo style system, where you could run to your corpse to loot valuables back, instead of actually being punished for death right away.Well, point stands, I guess. Zoomers are so retarded, that they will call any casual trash "chellenging"
>>733426273The only language worth learning if you already know westoidese is japanese, and learning japanese by comparing the original to the trannylation is a fool's errand.
>Tendies are so retarded they will pay $20 to play a game they can already play for free in a fucking web browser.Maybe Nintendo and Newgrounds should work together and rerelease some flashgames on the Switch.
>>733426806so you're finally admitting the pis5 can only do ps2 tier resolutions? glad we are on the same page now
>has online battling and trading>has Pokemon Home support since Home launched>all 9 languages in one packageApologize
>>733427001>Nintendo fans are the most braindead fanbase to ever exist.I don't know these last couple weeks have really been cementing for me that blizztards might have permanent stockholm syndrome
>>733426878Capitalism inherently relies on the subjectivity of value you fucking idiot.
>>733422615You've spent the last week spamming it's going to be $60 each.
>>733422628I wanted to make fun of you for preordering a digital game. But I could unironically see Nintendo pulling some limited sales retardation.
>>733427179You left out 'doesn't make your ears bleed and actually respects the tracks'.
>>733424481false, retard. LGPE has no national dex, therefore no gen 2-gen 3. They only have megas and region variants outside of the original 150
>>733427179Yeah but no pro controller support. Have to waggle. Or move around like a weirdo catching mons.
>>733427217>you'vemeds
>>733426689Erika's bush!
>>733427001Don't bundle me with the pokémon fans, they're the ones who accept being fucked in the ass with a smile
>>733427179It also looked better than Gen 8 and Gen 9
>>733422767and the dot com bubble killed the internet
>with how expensive the physical cartridges have gotten on the retro market, I can't afford to NOT buy this!!!!!fucking hell these people
>>733427179I never shat on it, best kanto games
>>733422132This should be on NSO, $20 for a single GBA ROM is insulting.>>733422542Lmao based. I'm playing Ruby on mine.
>>733427198Nah 343 fans are worse they've been getting fucked in the ass since 2011
>>733427238>Have to waggle.pretty sure you can just press the A button to throw a ball
Are they not adding the event locations? Even virtual console Crystal had the GS ball shit, and BDSP had all the gen 4 events (albeit time limited)
>>733425992Yes>>733425504It wore off and I don't feel like changing it
